2021 AHA/ACC/ASE/CHEST/SAEM/SCCT/SCMR Guideline for the Evaluation and Diagnosis of Chest Pain

Martha Gulati et al.

Summary: This clinical practice guideline provides recommendations and algorithms for evaluating and diagnosing chest pain in adult patients. It includes a comprehensive literature search and considers various types of evidence. The guideline emphasizes evidence-based risk stratification, diagnostic workup, and the importance of shared decision-making with patients.

High-Sensitivity Cardiac Troponin and the 2021 AHA/ACC/ASE/CHEST/SAEM/SCCT/SCMR Guidelines for the Evaluation and Diagnosis of Acute Chest Pain

Yader Sandoval et al.

Summary: The guidelines for the evaluation and diagnosis of acute chest pain released by multiple associations in 2021 provide important recommendations, including the use of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin (hs-cTn) as the preferred biomarker, defining myocardial injury with 99th percentile upper reference limits, and utilizing clinical decision pathways. However, the guidelines do not extensively address the details of integrating hs-cTn into clinical practice, and clinicians need to be aware of analytical aspects related to hs-cTn assays and how to best use it with clinical decision pathways.

Discordance of High-Sensitivity Troponin Assays in Patients With Suspected Acute Coronary Syndromes

Summary: The study aimed to quantify differences between high-sensitivity cardiac troponin (hs-cTn) assays and determine whether these differences may result in different management recommendations for patients with suspected acute coronary syndrome (ACS).

Impact of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin implementation on emergency department length of stay, testing, admissions, and diagnoses

James S. Ford et al.

Summary: The study compared ED LOS, admissions, and ACS diagnoses before and after the implementation of high-sensitivity troponin (hs-cTn). Findings revealed that the transition to hs-cTn was associated with increased ED LOS, decreased admissions, and no substantial changes in cardiac risk stratification testing, cardiology consultation, or ACS diagnoses.
